If You Want Joy, Real Joy ...!






I Remember Singing On Sabbath As A Child
 
"If You Want Joy
Real Joy
Wonderful Joy
Let Jesus Come Into Your Heart!" 

The Chorus Continued To Speak About 
Our Nights Being Turned To Day
Our Sins Being Washed Away
And 
Our Lives Being Made Over Anew! 

Beloved, 

When A Sentence Starts With An 
"If You Want ..." 
There Is The Real Possibility That 
You Don't Want The Thing On Offer! 

For The One Seeking The Lord At This Time 
When He Is To Be Found
Honest Questions Seeking Knowledge 
To Make The Informed Decision 
Regarding The New Life In Christ Are Acceptable! 

For The Christian Who Has Had Long Experience With
And 
Ample Proof Of 
The Goodness, Mercy, Love, And Grace Of The Lord
But, Why, What For, When, Where, And The Like 
Have That Sulphurous Stench Of Doubt! 

The Lord Jesus Christ Makes It Plain That 
He Has Nothing For Those 
Who Choose Not To Exercise Faith In Him 
And, Instead
Indulge Decimating Doubt! 

Are You Living As A Candle 
Glowing Or Guttering 
According To The Winds Of Change 
And
The Flavors Of The Moment 
Being Sold At The Fad Farm Or Ego Emporium!?! 

Fads Fail 
And 
Ego Goes Overboard! 

Slow, Sure, Steady, With Staying-Power
And 
With Saints Sealed And Saved 
Is
The Expected End Of The Life Committed To Christ! 

Faith Equips All Of Us Who Are Willing 
To Endure And Excel 
In The Journey To Joy In Jesus 
Which Continues Onward And Upward 
With The Joyous Celebration 
In New Jerusalem! 

Joy Is A Precious Gem! 
Dare To Find And Hold Your Treasure! 

Peace!

Get Yourself Adopted!






Why Would You Want To Reject The Opportunity 
To Be Adopted Into The Holy, Royal, Kind, Loving, Blessing
Giving, Forgiving, Peaceful, Restful Family Of 
The Eternal God 
To, Instead, Stay In A Volatile Atmosphere 
Where Leaders, Family, Friends, Associates And Co-Workers
Be They Young, Old, Rich Poor, Priestly, Princely, Free Or Slave 
Indulge In Rancid, Reckless, Rude, Crude, Undignified
Ugly, Sinful, Cruel, Criminal Behavior 
Because 
It's Natural To Them!?! 

Beloved, 

Every Man, Woman, And Child Ever Born
Presently Living
And 
Still To Be Born Has Opportunity To Class Up Their Lives 
By A Gifted And Guaranteed Open Invitation To 
And
Place In The Home Of The Blessed 
On The Hill Of The Beloved! 

There Is No Sign-On Bonus
No Profit-Sharing Package
No Entertainment Or Transportation Allowance
And 
No Enticement Of Being Able To Take Over 
The Patriarch's Position On His Passing: 
He Won't Die Because He Is Eternal! 

Jesus Christ Calls To You 
And 
If You Answer
He Will Open His Door To You That No One May Close! 

He Will Make You Anew
And
You Will Be Among The Chosen Few 
Who Desire To Be In His Presence 
And
You Will Forever Know That 
You Are Loved And Protected
And 
Get To Freely Visit His Holdings In The Realm Of Light Above! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Don't Choose To Live On The Garbage Dump 
By Carrying Sin On Your Back Like A Camel's Hump! 
Choose To Accept The Holy Spirit Through 
The Love Of Him Who Shed His Own Innocent Blood For You! 
You Are In His Heart: 
You Are Called!

Come Home!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Only Almighty God Cannot Change!

 




Jesus Christ Saves All Who Are Willing To Be Saved 
From The Penalty, Power, And Presence Of Sin! 
This Is Amazingly Good News! 

Beloved, 

The Soul That Sinneth, It Shall Die: 
It Is Appointed Once For Man 
To Die The Death From Which We Can Recover! 

The Wages Of Sin Is Death! 

Jesus Christ Saves Us From The Second Death 
Aka Eternal Separation From God! 

Sin Shall Not Have Dominion Aka Power 
Over Those Who, By Faith, Choose To Accept The Gift Of The Grace
The Power, Provision, And Protection Of The Living God! 

Blessed Is The One Who Chooses Not To Walk In Aka Follow 
The Counsels
The Prompts, 
The Advice Of Ungodly People! 

Examine Yourself! 
If You Are Being Ungodly
You Are Rejecting The Law Of God Which Makes Aka Marks You 
As Lawless 
And
A Sinner By Choice 
And 
Not By Virtue Of Being Born That Way! 

Please  Remember That We Have Choice And Chance
Free-Will And Freedom To Choose To Do And Live Right 
Aka Live A Sinless Life
And
To Bless The Eternal God
So Let No Created Being Convince You That 
You Cannot Change 
Aka Cannot Get The Victory Over Sin! 

Anyone Who Says They Cannot Change 
Is 
Become God
And 
Is A Liar, A Leech, A Thief
An Unrepentant Sinner 
And
Effectively Damned! 

There Is Only One God ... The Living, Almighty, Holy God: 
Adore Him! 
Give Him Dominion:
 He Is Worthy! 

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Praying Is Not About I-Want And I-Feel! + PRAYER: Remember, Lord ...!







Beloved, 

Someone Is Praying For You! 

Our Dear Savior ... Just Prior To Walking The Way To Calvary
Fervently Prayed For His Disciples 
And 
For All Of Us Who Would Eventually Believe Upon His Name! 

Our Savior Cares And Still Prays! 
Our Savior Cried, Died
And
Ascended On High
And 
His Gospel Is Known Not To Be Pie In The Sky By And By! 

We Are Called To Willing Service 
And 
Praying In Faith For Self And For Others 
Is 
Part Of Our Service For Our Lord 
And 
Part Of Our Caring For Our Own Souls! 

Let Us Remember That 
Praying Is Not A Shopping List Of I-Wants And I-Feels 
Nor Is It A Laundry List Of I-Know But ... 
Why Can't I Even Though ... 
If You Will I Won't ... 
And 
Gimme Now And I'll Never Ask Again! 

Let Us Ardently Say As We Pray: 

Thank You, Father!
Bless You, Lord!
Praise Your Name!
Draw Me Nearer!
Help Me Never To Profane Your Name
And 
Remember The Brethren Near And Far
Brother, Sis-Sis, Mami, Papi 
And 
Uncle Sam And Old Aunt Jane
The Prisoner
The Patient In Bed
And 
The Impatient In Spirit! 

Remember, Lord, Those Who Over Us Rule! 
Bless, Guide, And Teach Them 
So That They Won't Act The Fool 
Or Be Satan's Cheap, Disposable, Tool! 

Remember The Ministers Of The Gospel
Guarding The Flock 
And 
Help Them Not To Love Money 
So That They Won't Sell Out The Saints 
So That They May Buy Bonds And Stocks! 

We Pray Also For The Outpouring
And
Indwelling Of The Holy Spirit
The Protection Of The Holy Angels
The Salvation Of Lost Souls
And 
The Soon Return Of Our Savior! 
Please Help Us To Pray Without Ceasing!

Father, 
We Pray For Peace! 
We Pray For Knowledge Increase
And
With Hearts Filled To Overflowing With Love
We Pray For Safe Passage
To The Kingdom Of Light Above! 
AMEN!!!

Build A Beautiful Brain






Your Brain Isn't Actually A Muscle 
But 
It's Always Getting A Workout! 
We Train Our Brains!

Muscles Must Be Exercised 
If 
They Are To Strengthen And Grow 
And 
Remember What They Have Been Or Are Being Taught! 

Muscles Have Memory 
And
This Is Why We Are Able To Do Things 
Without Having To Forcefully "Think" About 
What We Are Going To Do! 
Trained Muscles Know! 

Beloved, 

With What Are You Exercising Your Mind!?! 
With What Bad Habit Are You Bulking Up Your Brain That 
Is Now Taking Over 
And
Disrupting Your Life!?! 
Is Your Brain-Training Showing!?!

The Apostle Paul Instructed Young Timothy 
To Study To Show Himself Approved By God
A Workman That Wouldn't Need To Be Ashamed! 

Is There A "Muscle" In Your Mind Juiced-Up On Steroids 
Aka Bad Medicine That 
Is 
Causing You To Think, Say, And Do Things 
Which Our Lord Christ Can Never Approve!?! 

We Have In The Lord Christ An High Priest Who 
Is 
Touched By The Feelings Of Our Infirmities
Short-Comings And Sicknesses Which Drop Us To Our Knees
And 
He Says To Us All: 

Come Boldly ... As You Are
To The Throne Of Grace 
To Obtain Mercy
And
Grace ... Favor ... Power 
To Help You
In Your Time Of Need! 

Please, I Beseech Us All
Be Not Proud, Arrogant, Lawless
Or A Man-Pleaser ... Self-Deluded! 

Please Acknowledge That There Is A Problem
Call It By Its Given Name 
And
Get Thee Hence To Jesus Christ The King
And 
Humbly Give It To Him! 
Do Not Be Ashamed:
Jesus Christ Saves! 

Brethren, Beloved

Dare To Build A Beautiful Brain
A Marvellous Mind
With The Blessed Exercise Plan 
Easily Found In The True Words Of Almighty God 
Which Speak Love, Life, And Liberty! 

Peace!

Your Character Determines Your Destination!





A Gentle Reminder ...

There Is Nothing That We Can Do 
That We Can Do Without Jesus Christ The Lord! 

There Is Nothing That Happens To The Faithful Child Of God 
That Happens Without The Lord's Knowledge And Consent: 
All Things Work For Our Good 
And 
For Almighty God's Great Glory ... Be Not Dismayed! 

The Lord Jesus Christ Will Take Care Of Us 
Because 
He Sacrificially Loves Us 
And
He Will Never Forget Us Who Are His Very Own
His Peculiar Treasure! 

Beloved, 

We Are Reminded That 
The Same God Who Provides For The Little Sparrow 
Who Is Worth A Penny In The Market-Place 
Will Always Provide For Us, You And Me 
For Whom He Bled And Died 
On The Shameful, Cruel, Cross Of Calvary! 

Please Ever Keep In The Fore-Front Of Your Thoughts That 
It Is Through Trial And Tribulation
Through The Perfecting Of Our Character 
That We Will Ascend To The Heights Of Glory: 
Your Character Determines Your Destination!  

Please Hold To Almighty God's Unchanging Hand
And 
Look Up
For Soon Comes The Glad Day! 

Our Redemption Is Drawing Ever Nearer! 
Be Strong In The Lord 
And
In The Power Of His Might! 

Peace!

The Fabulous Impostor






What Would You Say About A Real Pig That 
Looks Like A Sheep 
And 
Acts Like A Dog!?!  

The Mangalitsa Pig Aka Sheep-Pig Is Such A Creature! 





Hmmm... A Pig Is A Scavenger! 
A Dog Is Man's Furry Companion! 
A Sheep Is A Clean Animal
A Source For Man's Clothing Material
And 
In Baby Form Aka As A Lamb
Was Used For Sacrifice 
To Represent Our Dear Savior
Jesus Christ The Lord! 

Beloved, 

Can You Imagine Having Such A Creature Showing Up At The Temple
Brought By Someone Who Thought That 
Outward Appearance Was More Important Than Character!?! 

Think Of Wolves In Sheep's Clothing!
Think Of Friends Who Are Enemies! 
Think Of Satan Masquerading As An Angel Of Light 
Bearing "Truth" 
Which Is Actually The Darkness Of Death! 

Beware Of Masqueraders! 

Never Forget That The True Child Of God 
Is
By Saving Grace
Daily Becoming More Like Jesus! 

We Do Not Run To Execute Evil Schemes! 
We Do Not Take Pleasure In Tearing Down The Character Of Others 
But
We Daily Practice What We Learn Of 
And 
Speak About Our Blessed Jesus! 

We Do Not Seek To Be All Things To All People
Nor Can We Be Converted From The Holy Way 
By Being Groomed With Gifts And Treats! 

Dear Ones, 

Seek To Know All That Is Available 
To Be Known About Our Humble, Good, Kind, Savior 
So That You Will Not Be Overcome 
By The Fabulous Impostor That Is Satan! 

A Pig Wearing Wool 
Is 
Still Unclean 
Even If It Plays Nice Like A Pet Dog! 

Jesus Christ, Faithful, Just, Giving, And Forgiving
Is 
The Same Yesterday, Today And Forever! 

Only Trust The Lord! 

Peace!

Do Not Act Impulsively!








How Often Have We Heard Someone Say: 
"I Lost My Head!" 
After Acting Presumptuously 
And
In Haste!?! 

Oh, How Satan ... The Bounty-Hunter 
Loves To Hear Those Words Uttered 
In The Leisurely Activity Called Sorrowful Repentance! 
 
Beloved, 

A Scornful Dog Eats Dirty Pudding 
And 
The Impulsive, Hasty To Be Angry Person 
Gets To Slowly, Sorrowfully, Eat 
The Usually Unpalatable Patty Of 
Remorse And Regret 
If 
They Are Wise Unto The Saving Of Their Own Soul! 

We Are Imbued By Our Maker-Savior With 
The Ability To Think Clearly 
And 
Reason Wisely! 

Unfortunately, Many Of Us Choose To Act Irrationally
Impulsively ... Foolishly
Giving In To Sinful-Self While Forgetting That 
All Acts Have Outcomes
Many Of Which Are Unintended
Most Of Which Can Never Be Corrected! 

Please Don't Put Your Brain In Park 
While Your Mouth, Hands, And Feet Are In Motion! 

Let Us Remember What We Were Taught In Primary School 
When Learning To Cross The Street: 

Look Right! 
Look Left! 
And 
Look Right Again
And
Then Cross 
If
The Way Is Clear! 

Weigh The Pros! 
Weigh The Con

And

Remember That Impulsiveness 
Never Lays Out The Warm, Comfortable
Pretty Bed Of Peace And Quiet! 

Think Twice ... Even Thrice
Before You Act, Act Up, Or Act Out! 

Please Practice Self-Control: 
It Is One Of The Choice Fruits Of The Holy Spirit! 

Peace!

Don't Despise Instruction And Correction!






One Of The Most Amazing Things To Encounter
Is 
A Person Who Despises Being Instructed ... Or Corrected
Passionately And High-Handedly Giving Instruction 
And
Arrogantly, Aggressively, Performing 
The "Necessary" Correction Of Others! 

The Irony Is Laughable! 

Beloved, 

How Do You Take To Being Instructed And Corrected: 
Do You Give But Refuse Take!?! 

Are You Amongst Those Who Refuse To Believe That
They Have Something To Learn From Somebody
Even The Lord Christ
And 
Refuse To Accept Correction 
Because 
"I's All Growed Up!?!" 

We Are Instructed By Our Creator That 
Unless We Become As Little Children
We Shall Not Enter The Kingdom Of Heaven! 

The Fact Is ...

Children Are Like Sponges! 
Children Learn 
Because 
They Have The Capacity
The Willingness
And
The Desire To Learn! 

Let's Get Real! 
The Only Being Who Does Not Need Correction
Is
The All-Knowing God 
And 
Any Of Us Who Refuse The Guidance Of Wisdom 
Will Lie In The Grave Of Our Own Customized Digging! 

Let Us Take Heed To Ourselves 
And 
Remember ThatThe Back-End Of A Race-Horse 
And 
The Front-Side Of A Clown Always Have Admirers 
But 
No One Wants Their Posted Positions! 

Let Us This Day Remember That 
The King Of Glory Humbled Himself 
And 
Came Down To Us To Instruct Us 
And 
Demonstrate For Us The Right Way To Abundantly Live! 

The Holy Spirit Of Truth 
Is 
Now Here In His Stead To Lead Us Into All Truth 
So Dare To Stand As One Wisely Instructed 
And 
Lovingly Corrected
For Jesus Christ's Sake! 

Peace!

VESPERS AT THE END OF THE SABBATH: Control Is Cream For The Proud And Greedy!







Pride And Greed Go Together 
And 
They Are Poor Substitutes For Love: 
They Lead To Planned Sin! 

The More Pride We Display
The Less Love We Enjoy! 
The More Greed We Incubate
The More Pride We Activate! 

Beloved, 

All Who Take Pleasure In Pride And Greed 
Will Ultimately Utilize Pressure And Force 
To Get Their Own Way
To Inflict Their Will Upon Others! 

Think! 

Our Dear Savior Saves! 
He Made The Way For Us To Be Saved 
But 
He Cannot Save Us Until We Acknowledge That 
We See Our Obvious Danger
And In Godly Fear
Recognize That He, Alone, Is Able To Save Us
And In Faith
Call On Him For His Saving Grace, His Saving Power
And In Need
Humbly Reach For His Outstretched Hand Of Help And Healing! 

Jesus Christ Aka Love 
Is 
Not Proud
And 
He Is Not Greedy For Converts! 
He Knows All Who Are His Very Own! 

Our Dear Jesus Invites Us To His Side 
So He Has No Need To Use Force 
To Bring, Bend, And Bind Us To Him
And Thereby 
Usurp Our Free-Will 
And 
Freedom To Choose To Accept His Will Or Not! 

Our Jesus Has Manners: Satan And His Kind Do Not! 

Present Comfort
Does Not Equal Future Peace ...

Even In The Face Of Unchained Unkindness
Never Permit Anyone To Force Your Will 
And 
Never Give In To Wickedness 
To Receive A "Little Comfort" Now For Your Body! 

The Wickedness Of Pride And Greed 
Is 
Never Satisfied With A Little Bit
Since Control Is Their Cream! 

Brethren, Beloved

Please Accept Jesus Christ's Perfect Gift Of Love 
And 
Let Satan's Pride And Greed Be What They Are ... Damned!

Peace!

HAPPY SABBATH + Our Lord Christ Has Everlasting Arms!







 




Satan Is A Downward-Spiral Pony: 
He Drags Down And Never Lifts Up! 
He Is An Off-The-Scale Hurricane: 
Deadly Destructive! 

And Then ... 

We Have The King Of Love
The Lord Of Life
The Everlasting Father
The Eternal God Mighty To Save
Our Refuge And Strength
Who, Infallible, Says What He Means 
And 
Does What He Clearly Says! 

Beloved, 

Our Lord And Savior Jesus Christ 
Lovingly Calls Us To His Riven Side 
Where No One Can Separate Us From His Love
His Life
Where There Are Pleasures Forevermore! 

Yes, There Will Be Trials 
But 
When You Choose To Believe 
And 
Trust The Lord Who 
From Everlasting To Everlasting 
Aka Eternity Past To Eternity Future 
Is 
Almighty God
No Self-Confessed Wicked Human
No Damned Devil
No One Of The Known-Demonic Class 
Has The Power Or Ability 
To Tear The Lord's Everlasting Arms Out From Under You! 

The Lord Has Promised To Destroy His Enemies 
Who Are Also Our Enemies: 
When You, In Love, Walk Obediently With The Lord
You're An Offense To Satan And Sinners! 

If You Obey Satan The Damned
And 
Obviously Live Wickedly
You're An Offense, An Adversary
To The Blessed Savior And His Saints! 

There Is Heaven For Saints 
And 
There Is Hell For Unrepentant Sinners! 
There Is The All-Knowing, Everlasting, Savior 
And 
There Is The Known Short-Time-Left Satan! 

Choose Your Leader
Join A Team By Your Free-Will 
And 
Remember That It Is Jesus Christ Who Saves
Who Is The Winner 
When The Dust Of War Settles! 

Please, I Beseech Us All 
Hold To Jesus Christ's Unchanging Hands
His Unfailing Favor
Because 
Across The Bridge
Beyond The Separating Line
Is
No More Sorrow! 
Keep The Holy Faith! 

Peace!

Blessed In Sin!?! Really!?!

 




"If" 
Is 
A Condition Of Performance
So Let No One Fool You: 
The Blessings Of The Lord Are Conditional Upon 
Our Willing Obedience To His Word Which States His Will 
And 
Encourages Us To Walk In His Ways! 

Adam And Eve's Residence In The Garden Of Eden 
Was Maintained By Their Obedience To The Word 
Not To Eat Of The Tree Of The Knowledge Of Good And Evil! 

They, Instead, Took The Word Of A Lying Snake
Behaved In A Satanic Way
And 
Were Chased Out Of Eden 
Never Again To Walk Peacefully In The Cool Of The Day 
With Their Creator, Lord, God, And Glorious King! 

Beloved, 

The Sin Of Disobedience Brings With It Deflection 
Aka The Ready Willingness To Blame Others For Our Cockups: 
The Devil Can't Make You Do Anything! 

There Is This Rubbish Statement That 
Is 
Uttered To Impress The Impressionable 
And 
The Untaught, The Unlearned, In The Ways Of The Living God: 

"Look At Me! 
Envy Me! 
I Have Lots Of Stuff! 
I Am Truly Blessed By The Lord!" 

Know This ...

Holiday Turkeys Have Lots Of Stuff In Them 
And 
They Get Eaten! 

Fancy Stores Have Expensive Stuff In Them 
And 
They Get Robbed 

... And ... 

Having Lots Of Stuff In Your House 
And 
No Peace With Almighty God 
And 
No Love For Others In Your Heart 
Is 
A Curse! 

May Jesus Christ Bless Us All With Humility, Wisdom
And 
Understanding To Rightly Use Available Knowledge 
To Gain The True Heavenly Blessings! 

Peace!

Earthly Stuff Cannot Enter
The Eternal City!

Think ... And Grow A Cubit!?!





 

You, Me, We ... Not One Human Being 
May Make Himself Grow Taller 

And 

Not Just Taller
But 
By A Cubit Taller Aka 17.49 Inches Taller 
In An Instant
The Speed Of Thought! 

Beloved, 

The Arrogance Of Man 
Is 
Staggering When We Consider That 
In Our Pride, Greed, Hatefulness 
And 
Self-Centeredness
We Can't Even Think Ourselves A Foot And A Half Taller 
But 
Want To Take Almighty God Off His Throne In Glory
Remove Him From His Rightful Place In The Hearts Of 
His Children Made In His Image
Install A False God With Known Bathroom Privileges
And 
Give Unto This Finite Being 
Every Breathing Person's Free-Will 
And 
Freedom To Choose! 

In The Time Of Jesus' Earthly Sojourn
The Romans Made The Jewish People Tremble 
With Their Abject Physical Cruelty
And 
The Jewish Proxy-Rulers Of The People 
Embittered Their Lives  Further By Causing Them 
To Worship According To The Dictates Of Fickle Man 
And 
Not According To The Living Truth
With An Unseared Conscience
In The Beauty Of Almighty God's Holiness! 

Brethren, Beloved 

Let No Created Being Cause You To Disown Your Birth-Right 
For Tricks And Treats 
By Denying 
And 
Defying Your Creator, Savior, Redeemer 
Who Will Cause You To Be As He Is 
Even If It Means Adding Not Just 17.49 Inches 
But 
17.49 Feet To Your Stature! 

Jesus Christ, The Lord Of Life, Knows How To Do It 
And 
He Is Able To Do It 
If 
That Is His Will! 
He Is Almighty God! 

Man Cannot Save Man
So Please Do Not Trust Your Own Understanding: 
Faithfully Trust Jesus Christ As He Leads And Guides Us
Guides You
Gently, Safely, Home! 

Peace!
